If the US got off foreign oil we wouldn't have to worry about these crazy religious people in the middle east. Israel and the Arabs can blow each other up and the US should care less. They have been fighting forever and always will because they insist on clinging to ridiculous stone age ideas of religion.

Every time these religious wackos in Israel and Gaza start fighting the price of gas goes up. So basically my gas costs more because of neanderthals in the middle east. Ridiculous.

explain again how u.s. support of israel is because of oil. i must have missed something in the logic death spiral that led to that conclusion.
